ICAT Trainee Network

The ICAT Trainee Network is a newly formed group with the aim of connecting academic trainees at different levels within the ICAT pathway. It is founded and led by current trainees, who welcome your input into its future remit and activities.

Our remit is to provide a means of both formal and informal mentorship and collaboration between academic trainees at the University of Birmingham. While still under development, this webpage allows a trainee to search through current members via specialty, specific research interest or skillset. All listed members are happy to be contacted directly. 

Future social and educational meetings will be posted below. Our aim is to deliver content that is specific and tailored to the needs of our members, at all academic training levels. If you have a question about the network or want to get involved further, please contact Dr Karl Payne. 

Upcoming dates:

We are planning an informal face to face gathering in early 2024 – further details will be announced soon.
